Angel Blue – Soprano
Multi award-winning soprano Angel Blue is known for the beautiful timbre of her voice and her captivating stage presence. Gracing many of the world’s most prestigious stages over the last years, Angel is becoming an icon of her generation. The daughter of a pastor, she grew up in California listening to both gospel and opera and was determined from a young age to make it as an opera singer. To support her training, Angel performed in beauty pageants winning Miss Hollywood among other titles, and learned valuable lessons in self-worth along the way. After a devastating tour of auditions led to one rejection after another, in despair she turned to her mother and her faith for support, which enabled her to turn a corner at a crucial moment in her career. With determination she built on success after success, not only singing at the highest level but presenting concerts and competitions many of us know and love such as the BBC Proms and Cardiff Singer of The World, alongside founding her own YouTube channel, and last week she accepted the Grammy for the best Opera Recording for Porgy & Bess at the Metropolitan Opera.
